This time, I watched a 19-year-old movie "The Rabbit of Jojo" with my boyfriend. This movie is based on the history of World War II. While exposing the crimes of war, it gave me a humorous overall feeling. It is also different in style from most other films involving war.
Looking back on the film now, there are a few things that impress me the most:
1. The background time of the film was selected from the eve of the defeat of Germany in World War II. The army was lacking in combat effectiveness, so the Scouts began to be trained one after another to be transported to the front line of the war, truly restoring and showing the historical truth of that period to the audience. The protagonist of the film review is a ten-year-old German boy named jojo. He and his friends have been brainwashed by the Nazi army since childhood, so that they became fanatics who worship Nazism at a young age. Therefore, Nazism in Germany at that time was instilled from the childhood of German children. They organized children to burn textbooks, preached that Aryan blood was higher than all races, discriminated against Jews, etc., which fully reflected that Nazism not only The persecution of the surrounding world and other races also shows the persecution of their own country and their own children.
2. Unlike him, Jojo's mother rescued a Jewish girl and hid her at the top of the house to protect her. After Jojo found out about this, he was very puzzled by his mother's behavior at first. But one of the things that left a deep impression on me in the play was his mother's way of educating him, which I think is worth learning from. She and Jojo get along very much like friends. Indeed, if adults and children get along as friends, the children are more willing to reveal their hearts, and the two sides will understand each other better. This makes me think that a ten-year-old child should not be regarded as a childish child. They already have their own thoughts, but they just say that the three views of children at this stage are still in the shaping stage and need to be guided. For example, in the play, Jojo's mother is in a happy mood because the war is about to end, but Jojo questions his mother's infidelity to the Nazis and opposes the end of the war. She knew that this was not the right way to educate, it would only cause the child's rebellious psychology, so she put the stove ashes on her cheeks, put on Jojo's late father's military uniform, spoke to Jojo in the tone of her father, and told Jojo's mission Not to quarrel with my mother, but to protect my mother for my father.
3. Not all Germans during World War II were Nazisized. Many Germans who supported the liberation of Germany and ended the Nazi war were hanged. Jojo's mother was one of them. Although a Nazi lieutenant in the film critic saw that the Jewish girl in Jojo's family was not Inge, he helped Jojo and the Jewish girl escape. At the end of the film, when the Russian army and the US army invaded the town, their behavior is no different from the Nazi army in my opinion. They still burn, kill, loot, and treat the Germans cruelly. The above scenes also just show that human nature has good and evil, but the proportions are different. It is indeed very one-sided to label any person with a national and ethnic label.
